AGAINST COMPULSION
SOME LIVELY MEETINGS. POLITICIANS HECKLED. (Received January 1?. 1 a.m.) London, January 17. Lively anti-compulsion meetings have taken place in the provinces. Mr. R. R. Outhwaite, Liberal M.P. for Hanley, was severely heckled at Manchester. Mr. Anderson, another member of the House of Commons, was shouted down at Sheffield. A mass meeting of Crewe railway men, at which Mr. G. J. Wardle, Labour M.P. for Stockport, spoke amidst constant interruptions, defeated a resolution against compulsion. The Scottish Trades Union Conference, at Glasgow, carried a resolution demanding the withdrawal of compulsion.
